Cracked open a new bag of this at work today for a much-needed energy boost. On that, it has not disappointed (I’m only about halfway through my cup). I steeped it for a little longer than usual, given that mates aren’t susceptible to oversteeping, but I think that triggered the licorice root. It’s a really nice lemony cup with a bit of tingle from the ginger and ginseng, but the aftertaste is nothing but throat-sticking cloying licorice. Very unpleasant.
